foxdie Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 I dont use a 3rd party firewall or anti-Virus. If you look at what you're clicking chances are you will be virus/adware free. Of course in the rare occasional i do get something i reload an image i made of my computer. Jobs a winner. Full computer restore in 20mins. Thats quicker than a full virus scan i imagine! WHat im trying to say is there other alternatives to boggin your cpu down with various programmes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwwd Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Yeah, experience is the best defence. Never had a problem with my desktop in 7 years, while my friends and family keep getting me to sort out all kinds of problems on their computers even though they've got firewalls and anti-virus software. F*ck knows what they're all getting up to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
